Daily Log #4
Aug. 16th, 2012 04:35 pmI ended up spending last night organizing archival materials and following up on a couple of outlier publicity opportunities, resulting in a new interview (detail info when I get it) and a new guest blog/interview.
This morning, I met with the curator at the Jean-Nicolaus Tretter Collection and turned over some of my papers. I also got to tour the vaults of the Rare Books and Special Collections at the U. of MN Libraries, which was cool both literally and figuratively.
After that, I swung by Uncle Hugo's to pick up Kelly McCullough's new book, "Bared Blade," and Melissa Scott's "Point of Knives." I also signed their new stock of "Silver Moon" which is always delightful. :-) And the manager, my pal Elizabeth, and I got caught up and talked about L-J Baker's "Promises, Promises,"
which we both enjoyed quite a bit. In short, go buy some books at Hugo's and Edgar's because they are awesome.
I then headed home with the full intention of working. Which resulted in my laying around all afternoon under a rotating blanket of cats while reading Scott's fun new work. And now I'm off to check out The Dragon and the George Pub (how can I not?) and catch "Farewell My Queen."
Tomorrow, there will be toil and lots of it. Today, we relax.
